A YANKEE TRIBUTE
Southern wt vcra nr.*i>rpa*Acd •
••dng the nation* of the earth in cour
age. tpbrit, hospitality, and generality
to their equal*. They were apt to com
Utar.d and apt to StKeeed. They were
•tie politician*. With the tore and
habit of truth, which becomes brave
ntea In all common conce:rw, they
were tubdc and skilful diplomatist*
when diplomacy was needed to uecom
piadi any political rod.
My long conflict with their leaders
ha* impressed me with nn ever in
creasing admiration of the greet and
high qualities of our Southern peo
ple. Their leva of home; their eMv
aloua reepoet for women; their cour
age; their delicate mate of honor;
their constancy, which ran abide by
an opinion or a purpose or an interest
of their state’*, through adversity
and through prosperity, through the
yean and through the generations,
are things by, which the people of the
more mercurial North may tab* a Ics
»ofi- And there la another thing—eo
rftUwimom, corruption, the low temp
tatiea of money ha* not yet found
••y place In our Southern politics.—

MMaacbueetts. 1877,1904.
